Roman Abramovich nearly bought Spurs over Chelsea

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich came close to buying Tottenham Hotspur, but was advised against an offer for the Premier League rivals by former England manager Sven Goran Eriksson, reports The Sun.

In the latest revelation from his autobiography, the 65-year-old Swede reveals how the Russian billionaire sought direction on which London club in England's top tier would be the better long-term investment.

Had it not been for Eriksson's intervention, Abramovich might have been in control at White Hart Lane - not Stamford Bridge - and delivered both domestic and European glory to Spurs instead of the Blues.

However, with aspirations to win the Premier League title, Eriksson encouraged the purchase of Chelsea, because - he said - only half of the first-team would need changing, compared to the entire overhaul that would have been required at Tottenham.
 
Typical mob mentality.

Saints fan stands up for himself....so the usual suspects accuse him of being Hiag.

I appreciate your words spurlock and they are true

But this is not about me. I myself do have a family member who has aspergers and I hate to think of him having to suffer what skiddy said to matt the other day. For me it's every bit as bad as abusing someone on the basis of their religion or skin colour

It's disgusting how a certain 2 are trying to trivialize this bile just because it does not suit their own particular agenda on this site. They are every bit as bad as that dog

It doesn't even say he made an offer, never mind 'nearly brought Spurs'! Probably fair comment about the state of the squads at the time though.

Apparently Levy wanted too much (no surprise there then) and Roman thought it excessive for a small club with a **** team and crappy ground so Pinni Zahavi took him to see Ken.
